Vanja Winblad's keynote will emphasise SKF's commitment to sustainability and operational efficiency. At the exhibition stand, the spotlight will be on SKF's Food line portfolio, especially the Food line ball bearing units, which are designed to meet the highest hygiene and food safety standards.
These advanced bearing units are completely sealed, lubricated for life, and built to perform in the harshest processing and cleaning environments. Their hygienic design, corrosion-resistant materials, and blue-coloured components enhance optical detectability and reduce contamination risks. The SKF Food line ball bearing units also help minimize maintenance needs and support proactive food safety strategies.
"Our Food Line ball bearing units are a game-changer for the food and beverage industry," says Andreas Galvagni, Head of Global Industry Food and Beverage at SKF. "They help manufacturers ensuring uptime, safety, and sustainability."
SKF's Food line ball bearing units offer: relubrication-free operation, reducing maintenance and environmental impact; NSF H1 food-grade grease and FDA/EC-approved seals; smooth surface finishes and sealed housings for superior hygiene; reduced water and energy usage during cleaning; and extended service life and reliability, even under demanding conditions.
SKF will also present its compact beverage units, maintenance products, sealing solutions, and condition monitoring technologies tailored to food and beverage applications.
